Capturing the Sub Menu values using Selenium Web Driver

Purpose: Capturing the Sub Menu values using Selenium Web Driver

Some times we may need to validate the valus of Sub-menus. If static it is easy to implement but some times we may need to validate the dynamic data.

Following code will help to accomplish this:

import java.util.List;
import org.openqa.selenium.By;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebElement;
import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.interactions.Actions;
import org.testng.annotations.AfterTest;
import org.testng.annotations.BeforeTest;
import org.testng.annotations.Test;

public class DropDownCSSMenu {
 public String baseURL = "http://demo.lateralcode.com/css-drop-down-menus/";
 public WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver();
 public Actions action = new Actions(driver);
 public List<WebElement> elements;
 public int size;

 @BeforeTest
 public void launchBrowser()
 {
  driver.get(baseURL);
 }

 @AfterTest
 public void closeBrowser()
 {
  driver.quit();
 }

 @Test
 public void test() throws InterruptedException
 {
  WebElement home = driver.findElement(By.linkText("Home"));
  WebElement about = driver.findElement(By.linkText("About"));
  WebElement contact = driver.findElement(By.linkText("Contact"));
 
  action.moveToElement(home).build().perform();//MouseOver of Menu
  driver.findElement(By.xpath("//*[@id='menu']/ul/li[1]/ul/li[1]/a")).click(); //Clicking Sub Menu
  Thread.sleep(3000);
  elements = driver.findElements(By.xpath(".//*[@id='menu']/ul/li[1]/ul/li/a"));
  for (WebElement element : elements) {
   System.out.println(element.getText());
  }
 
  action.moveToElement(about).build().perform();//MouseOver of Menu
  driver.findElement(By.xpath("//*[@id='menu']/ul/li[2]/ul/li[1]/a")).click(); //Clicking Sub Menu
  Thread.sleep(3000);
  elements = driver.findElements(By.xpath(".//*[@id='menu']/ul/li[2]/ul/li/a"));
  for (WebElement element : elements) {
   System.out.println(element.getText());
  }
 
  action.moveToElement(contact).build().perform();//MouseOver of Menu
  driver.findElement(By.xpath("//*[@id='menu']/ul/li[3]/ul/li[1]/a")).click(); //Clicking Sub Menu
  Thread.sleep(3000);
  elements = driver.findElements(By.xpath(".//*[@id='menu']/ul/li[3]/ul/li/a"));
  for (WebElement element : elements) {
   System.out.println(element.getText());
  }
 }
}

Clicking on CSS Drop Down sub Menu using Selenium WebDriver

Purpose: Clicking on CSS Drop Down sub Menu using Selenium WebDriver

Some times we encounter to test different types of Web Sites which have some dynamic features and automating such features are little bit difficult. One of such example is CSS Drop Down Menus & Sub-menus.

Following code will help to handle CSS Drop Down Menus & Sub-menus:

import org.openqa.selenium.By;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebElement;
import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.interactions.Actions;
import org.testng.annotations.AfterTest;
import org.testng.annotations.BeforeTest;
import org.testng.annotations.Test;

public class DropDownCSSMenu {
 public String baseURL = "http://demo.lateralcode.com/css-drop-down-menus/";
 public WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver();
 public Actions action = new Actions(driver);

 @BeforeTest
 public void launchBrowser()
 {
  driver.get(baseURL);
 }

 @AfterTest
 public void closeBrowser()
 {
  driver.quit();
 }

 @Test
 public void test() throws InterruptedException
 {
  WebElement home = driver.findElement(By.linkText("Home"));
  WebElement about = driver.findElement(By.linkText("About"));
  WebElement contact = driver.findElement(By.linkText("Contact"));
 
  action.moveToElement(home).build().perform();//MouseOver of Menu
  driver.findElement(By.xpath("//*[@id='menu']/ul/li[1]/ul/li[1]/a")).click(); //Clicking Sub Menu
  Thread.sleep(3000);
 
  action.moveToElement(about).build().perform();//MouseOver of Menu
  driver.findElement(By.xpath("//*[@id='menu']/ul/li[2]/ul/li[1]/a")).click(); //Clicking Sub Menu
  Thread.sleep(3000);
 
  action.moveToElement(contact).build().perform();//MouseOver of Menu
  driver.findElement(By.xpath("//*[@id='menu']/ul/li[3]/ul/li[1]/a")).click(); //Clicking Sub Menu
  Thread.sleep(3000);
 }
